Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Beware, Buy at your own riskComment: The lens has totally crapped out after 50 or so photos and 14 months on the shelf with some other lenses.
Customer Rating: Summary: well built, compact and near "L" grade imagesComment: If you are looking for the perfect portrait lens on a budget, here you go!
Customer Rating: Summary: My favorite!Comment: This lens is always in my bag - it's a great little performer at an affordable price, very sharp, great contrast, very fast. It's also small and lightweight, so easily pocketable when you don't want to carry a bunch of equipment around. I have several L lenses and this non-L rivals those for image quality. Highly recommended, especially for photographers looking to going beyond their kit lens, but maybe shy about shelling out the really big $$$ for L lenses or other prime lenses.Customer Rating: Summary: Fantastic Prime LensComment: I purchased this lens by the reviews on Amazon already. I use this lens on a Canon XTI and it is everything the great reviews have said.
Customer Rating: Summary: Very Sharp!Comment: This lens Is Very lightweight which is good if you are moving around a lot. The prime focus is very very sharp. I think that is my favorite feature about the lens. it is easy to operate and fast. For the price I feel like I got more than I paid for. I own a 200-mm L, and a 24-70-mm L lenses, and an image stabilized 17-85-mm EFS that are wonderful. The affordable 50 mm canon lens still gets pulled out of the equipment bag regularly. Good buy, fun lens!
